In my scene there are many elephants. Some are resting, some are eating, and there are baby elephants too. Among the trees I am watching the elephants. I chose this scene because I like elephants very much, and I enjoy watching them.
In my family there is my father, mother, my elder brothers, and myself. I like to watch TV but I don’t like to be hit. I spend my free time drawing and coloring. I hope to be a pilot someday.
